Hong Kong Yesterday presents a singular vision of this enigmatic city by award winning photographer, Fan Ho. Black and white images capturing life in mid-century Hong Kong range from quiet voyeuristic tableaus to chaotic crowds, most focusing on the citys inhabitants. Businessmen, families, dockworkers, alleys, markets and street scenes are all rendered in a style that is simultaneously abstract and humanistic. Fan Ho was born in Shanghai in 1937; he immigrated to Hong Kong as child and passed away in 2016.

Tapa Dura. Condition: New. Ho, Fan (illustrator). Publicado por Modernbook Editions San Francisco, ?Hong Kong Yesterday? de Fan Ho es la primera de una trilogía de publicaciones que muestran imágenes de Hong Kong tomadas durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960. Las fotografías de ?Hong Kong Yesterday? capturan una era en la que la ciudad captura el cambio de las tradiciones de la ciudad con la introducción de la occidentalización. Aquí, fotografías de barrios marginales, callejones, cruces peatonales concurridos y vías fluviales se capturan elegantemente mediante el brillante uso de la luz y la composición de Fan Ho, creando escenas llenas de romanticismo y poesía pero imparciales en su descripción de las realidades de la vida cotidiana. Las imágenes capturan maravillosamente un recuerdo casi olvidado de la ahora moderna ciudad de Hong Kong, un valioso testimonio visual de la historia y la cultura de la ciudad.Esta publicación incluye una introducción de John A Bennette con un epílogo de Mark Pinsukanjana y Bryan Yedinak.
